I was talking about the paint protectors Tripper. I was trying to be funny.

Red letter day!

Don't know about you but measurin' for the drive shaft is a big day for me... means it won't be long now! Got the motor back in for the final time, mocked the tranny mount up & measured for the drive shaft. Yipppeeee!!! Brake lines next then I'll channel & mount the body. This is really the exciting part & has got me really motivated again!!!

Progress!

Put the cab back on to measure up for the channel, front end & radiator. Ck this tubular x-member... this sucker is stout!!! Also couldn't resist takin' a picture of the rockers 1 more time before I button the covers up. Onward through the fog!!!
